YOU FEEL ALONE FOR CHRISTMAS?! HOMESICKNESS?!
How about installing a Family Love Routine? For example:
-
Set, in your agenda, regular meetings with your family and loved ones ( phone calls, visio calls…..) and keep a journal of topics you want to share with them, encounters, activities, discoveries…..like a virtual coffee together. That will pep you up and make you feel like you are less far away. You know you have regular, planned meetings and you are not alone.

For my mother, for Christmas, I sent her an Advent Calendar with 24 times 3 messages: my 2 sons ( her grand sons ) and myself. So, everyday, from the 1st of December, she finds in each pocket of the calendar, 3 personal messages reminding her how much we think about her and send her our loving thoughts.
What idea will your creativity come up with, to stay in touch with the people you care most about?
Let’s stir up ideas to show others the possibilities.
